The 2017 Mazda CX-5 range of configurations is currently priced from $10,999.
Our most recent review of the 2017 Mazda CX-5 resulted in a score of 7.9 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The new CX-5 has certainly picked up where the old one left off, and is better in every way. The new diesel is a cracker and the safety package belongs on a much more expensive car.

This is what Peter Anderson liked most about this particular version of the Mazda CX-5: Great looking, Good value, Good safety package
The 2017 Mazda CX-5 carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1800 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Mazda CX-5 2017 prices range from $13,090 for the basic trim level SUV Maxx (4x2) to $24,420 for the top of the range SUV Akera (4x4).
Of those you list I would go for the Mitsubishi ASX. You could also try the Kia Sorento or Mazda CX-5.

There’s no good reason to not buy a Falcon, parts will be available for many years yet. There’s the Commodore, but it too is out of production. Other than that there’s no similar sized car available for you. You need to think about getting an SUV, such as a Toyota Kluger, Kia Sorento, Mazda CX-5.

As you say, the choice is bewildering. All the models you have been looking would be suitable; you could also look at the Nissan X-Trail. I would go for either the Mazda CX-5 or the Kia Sportage, but that's not to say the others aren't worth considering. Why don't you go shopping and check each of them out to see how they fit your needs.
